Types of Theft

The following is a list of commonly committed theft crimes in Texas:

Misdemeanor vs Felony Theft Crimes

Misdemeanor theft occurs when a person illegally takes another person's property without the person's consent and the value of the property is less than $1,500.00. The most commonly committed misdemeanor theft crime is shoplifting. Felony theft is when a person illegally takes another person's property without the person's consent and the value of the property is more than $1,500.00.

Penalties for Theft Crimes

Any person who is convicted of a theft crime may be sentenced with jail or prison time, fines, probation, community service, and restitution. Additionally, the person's theft crime conviction will show up on their criminal record, which is accessible to the public.

When a person has a theft crime conviction on their criminal record, it can be very difficult to obtain employment, housing, and education opportunities.

Effects of a Theft Conviction

A conviction for theft can have a significant impact on your life. It will be on your criminal record as a theft arrest and conviction and may cause you to lose professional, educational, and even housing opportunities. If you currently have a professional license, that license may also be in jeopardy if the licensing agency becomes aware of the theft.

Furthermore, a theft conviction is considered a crime of moral turpitude. That means that if you are convicted of theft you cannot sit as a juror, a fundamental right of American citizens.
